Hi,
I'm trying to use one property (that I obtain from the HKCU Registry) to
set another property that later I'll use to make anothe RegistrySearch
(in the HKLM). But I've not been able to work propertly
That's exactly what I'm doing :
1. Set the first property, via searching the registry :
*<Property Id="SOFT_CURVER">
<RegistrySearch Id="MySoft_Curver" Root="HKCU" Key="Software\My
Software" Name="CurVer" Type="raw" />
</Property>*
2. Define a CA that uses the previous property to build another one :
*<CustomAction Id="MyAssign" Property='SOFT_REGISTRY' Value="Software\My
Software\[SOFT_CURVER]" />*
3. Use that new property to find in the registry the location where I
want to install the package:
*<Property Id="SOFT_LOCATION">
<RegistrySearch Id="MySoft_Location" Root="HKLM"
Key="[SOFT_REGISTRY]" Name="Location" Type="raw" />
</Property>*
4. I use the SOFT_LOCATION property to set the directory to install,
overriding
*<Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir">
<Directory Id="ProgramFilesFolder" Name="PFiles">
<Directory Id="LOCATION" Name=".">
<Directory Id='INSTALLLOCATION' Name='MySoft10'
LongName='MySoft 1.0'>
<Component ...
....*
5. I also sequence the CA to execute after initializing and just in case
that SOFT_LOCATION is defined. I'm not using any dialog, so I just use
the InstallExecuteSequence tag :
*<InstallExecuteSequence>
<Custom Action="MyAssign" After="CostInitialize">SOFT_LOCATION</Custom>
</InstallExecuteSequence>*
Obviously I'm missing something. But I don't know what? Any idea?
Thanks in advance
